      We stayed on public island Maafushi for 4 nights 5days in kaani grand Seaview hotel and our total expenses were around 90k for couple including flights,food,cab,speed boat transafer, excursion and covid test (15k for couple)
      We didn't booked water villa as island hopping was restricted currently (we travelled in first week of feb)
      But i will recommend you to book at least 1 day in watervilla as maldives is famous for watervilla experience and as per current covid situation, watervilla day tours are also closed.

    Is it necessary to do Covid test in Maldives? Can't we do it at Bangalore Airport after arrival and wait for result? As it is too much expensive in Maldives, also do we have to upload negative report on Air Suvidha site? I am planning to go next week please assist

    I want to go to water villa. But don't be too costly. Is that a water villa in a mini budget?
